was sup guys,well im still working on my timing chain problem i have just begun the battle, got the belts, fan, pulleys removed/loosened. now the tricky part is the rotor position which i have no idea where its supposed to be in order for the engine to be Top Dead Center? the 240sx.org guide said that the rotor should be facing the lower suspension of the driver side. and looking at the current position of the picture it looks off where exactly should it be clockwise? 4 oclock 5 oclock? i need some help here guys and to take of the pulleys attached to the shaft is there a special tool that i need to buy? i know i need a deep socket 27mm to move the crankshaft. help!!!! thanks guys
